I just implemented this over the weekend. Still not totally sure what I am doing, but I do have all my classes outputting to a log file I have specified. I went with a simple approach creating a reference to a Logger object in each class (I have an external properties file supplying all the config options). My problem is everything ends up in one giant file and it is hard to interpret.
I am now thinking about having each class create and configure a logger object and write to its own file. One log per class. The good thing is it is log4j is easy to set up and start logging with. Here is the tutorial I got started with: http://www.developer.com/open/article.php/10930_3097221_1 HTH Luke > Hi everyone > Im looking for some tips on implementing a logging system in tomcat.
